PUNISHMENT OF CHILDREN.

! There are two kinds of punishment,
the punishment which Furnishes and the
punishment that does not punish. OF
the two the latter is the more common.
iCorporeal punishment has been the sub
iect of much discussion, and its gradual
elimination from schools lis conclusive
evidence on which side the people lean.
The old idea of regarding the rod as
/ the sovereign cure for all youthful evils
I is rapidly losing ground, and common
sense Punishment is more or less brutal.
The thought that pam must be
! inflicted in order to impress the mind
with a certain idea is in Itself repul
sive. TO allow any person other than
a parent to inhict bodily punishment
is wrong from the very outset, because
it gives the teacher privilege which
should be sacred to the parents only.
If child is unmanageable it should
be sent home for punishment, and not
be placed at the mercy of teacher,
who, in a majority of cases in totally
unfit to mete out proper punishment.
A teacher naturally lacks careful dis
elimination, and Furnishes d child
lightly or severely, as his humor may
be just at that time. Teachers have
heretofore been allowed entirely too
much license, and hundreds Of cases
of absolutely brutal beating have re-
sIlted. 1t is a teachers duty to study
the nature Of each individual pupil, 50
that when punishment becomes alb
necessary he can punish the
child in a rational ard effective way,
and that without using brute force.
Most children succumb rapidly to kind
and considerable treatment, and with
such nature single blow is as effective
as a severe beating would be. A child
soon learns to distinguish between
right ard wrong, and when the SEN
are once thoroughly awakened
beating becomes unnecessary. "Spare
the rod and spoil the child was never
intended to be taken in its literal
sense. Children must be punished;
anything approaching brutality is
never necessary.

offered and make such show Of their
/ resources as will confirm the lesson
first taught by the Cotton exposition
in this city. Applications from ex-
hibitors from the north and west are
already Overwhelming. Every build
ing that can possibly be erected can
| be filed with fine exhibits from beyond
| the Ohio or the Potomac. The di-
rectors, however, are anxious that the
Piedmont region shall come to the
! front and take first place III this ex-
| position, which is primarily for its
benefit.
1t is necessary that applications for
space should be made promptly. The
directors have already provided one
| hundred and fifty thousand square feet
of space. If it is necessary to have
more buildings in order to accommo-
date exhibitors this fact should be
known as soon as possible. Atlanta S
whole heart is in the enterprise, and
her whole people are ready to back the
directors in anything that is necessary
to make it a complete success. The
directors from president down are
working without salary and giving
their whole time to the work. Now,
let every city, every town, every COM
munity, every individual, in the Pied
mont region that has anything that
would be interesting to show, or that
gives an idea of the riches of this sec
ton, undoubtedly the richest section
of the republic, send forward at once
his application for space, stating exactly
what he proposes to show and exactly
the space he needs. The Cotton ex-
position found it necessary during the
last month to decline as many exhibits
as they had already exhibited, it being
impossible to erect new buildings in
time for their accommodation. 1t is
earnestly hoped that the Piedmont ex-
position will not have to curtail it's
show in the same way. The direc-
tors are ready to furnish the buildings
if the exhibitors will only make known
their wants in time.
We ask every newspaper in the
Piedmont region to help in getting
this request before the people. There
is not community whose best in
terest will not be served by such an
appeal as this in its local paper. Will
not our brothers of the press give us
their aid in this matter The Con-
Shtntion cannot hope to reach every
community in the Piedmont region,
but wherever its circulation extends it
gives the Piedmont exposition its
hearty and gratuitous help. Will the
press anywhere throughout the whole
section be backward in giving their
sanction and sympathy to this enter
prise: which promises SO much to de-
velop the communities through which
they circulated

NORTH CAROLINA AT THE Elk
POSITION.

Under the above heading the Atlant;
Constitution has this to say:
We find the following editorial in {
late issue of the Ashville, n. c., Citizen
We commend it to the attention o
every community in the States tina
touch the Piedmont region:
At the Atlanta exposition of 1881
crude materials selected from the al
most totally undeveloped resources O
western North Carolina were exhibited
and the display not only gratified al
North CarolinIans who saw it, but as
tonised them as we'll as others. Thai
exhibition has been worth untold thou
sands in dollars directly to our section
besides adding comforts, conveniences
ETC., not to be estimated. Notwith
standing the improvements which have
taken place, yet real development:
have scarcely been entered upon. Ir
October Atlanta will offer another
opportunity for western Carolina.
We have faith enough in the resource:
Of our section to hope for and urge a
full participation in the Piedmont ex.
position. Every county should have
a full exhibit, as such; and it would be
eminently proper for the county com
missioners Of each county to consider
this matter and at least recommend
their people to take the necessary steps
to secure a good exhibit, and appoint
some person to superintend the col
lection. Our section must be repre-
sented. We cannot afford to lose
such an opportunity. Thousands OF
people from all sections of the union
will certainly attend to see for them
selves what for an exhibit a section OF
which SO much Boosting has been made,
can offer. 1t may cost few hundred
dollars to our people to make the col
lection and eXhibit-not more, but, if
we'll done, done upon scale which
the real resources will justify, thous-
ands upon thousands Of dollars will
come back to aid the further develop
ment and prosperity of the section.
Let us all be up and doing.
1t is admitted on all sides that the
Cotton exposition at Atlanta was the
starting point for the present develop
ment of southern resources. That ex-
position first attracted northern CAPT.
tai to the south. Even the exhibit
made by Moth Carolina, as incom
plete as that was, has, according to
the Citi5en, repaid that STATE a thousand
fold.
The Piedmont exposition will equal
the Cotton exposition in every respect
and surpass it in many respects. Its
buildings will be as large, and its equip
ment much more complete. Its pro-
gramme is more attractive and will
bring larger crowds, The interest in
the Piedmont region is hundred
times greater now than it was in 1881,
and visitors from all sections Of the
north will be here in large numbers to
study the resources of this section
epitomized at the exposition.
!. The people of Atlanta are spending
one hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars to sc, this show ready, and every
accommodation will be offered to visi-
tors md exhibitors. They furnish this
money themselves and ask for no out
side help, and are projecting prepara-
tons on scale that leaves little hope
of the return OF dollar invested. All
they ask is that the towns and cities
throughout the Piedmont region taken
advantage of the opportunity thus

Said Her PRAYERS i'm French.

It was naughty Eastern lady, who
had but dimly heard of this turbulent
town, where people light their cigars
with dynamite and you shoot a waiter
for bringing You a potato that's only
half boiled. She did not know what
language we talked, but she had no
manner of doubt that we had heard of
French. There was San Francisco
lady with her little child down on a
visit, and the three foregathered. One
night the Eastern lady was watching
the San Franciscan mother putting
her little 4-year-old to bed, with the
usual formulas.
"Ah," said the Eastern lady, "of
course you haven't got SO far in these
matters as we have?"
"What do you mean?"
my children have all been taught to
say their prayers in French"
The California mother blushed. She
had to confess with shame that her
child could only speak to God in
English. But the little 4-year-old was
listening. She got up in bed and put
her little hands together:

vous portez-vous? Amen. San Fran

Bottled SMEAR.

The author of under the Punkah"
tells an amusing incident of his life in
India. The story is good illustrative
one, for it applies we'll TO many investi-
cations and discussions carried on
among men. He had given to tame
monkey lump of sugar inside corked
bottle. The monkey was of an in
curing kind, and the effort to get at
the mystery-and the sugar-nearly
killed him.
Sometimes, in an impulse of disgust,
he would throw the bottle away. out of
his reach, and then be distracted until
it was given back to him.
At other times he would sit with o
countenance of the most intense deiec-
ton, contemplating the bottled sugar,
and then, as if pulling himself together
for another effort at solution, would
sternly take up the problem afresh,
aud gaze into the bottle. He would
tilt it up one way and try to drink the
sugar through the cork, and then, sud-
denly reversing it, try to catch the
sugar as it fell out at the bottom.
Under the impression that he could
catch it by surprise, he kept rapping
his teeth against the glass in futile
bites, and, warming to the pursuit of
the revolving lump, used to tie himself
into regular knots round the bottle.
Fits of the most ludicrous melancholy
would alternate with these spasms of
furious speculation, and how the mat
ter would have ended it is impossible
to say.
But the monkey got loose one night
and took the bottle with him; and it
has always been delight to me to
think that whole forestfuls of monkeys
have by this time puzzled themselves
into fits over the great problem of Bot
tied Sugar.
